Notwithstanding the challenges related to the fast-spreading coronavirus, Canadian diversified miner Teck Resources president and CEO Don Lindsay on Wednesday reported that all the group’s operations remained in production, albeit on a reduced basis.
The Vancouver-headquartered group announced that it had slowed operations and reduced its crews by up to 50% of regular levels at its steelmaking coal operations and Highland Valley Copper operations, in British Columbia, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.
These measures started on March 25 and would be in place for an initial two-week period.
